INJURY ASSESSMENT STRATEGY Sample Clauses

INJURY ASSESSMENT STRATEGY. The goal of injury assessment under the OPA is to determine the nature, degree, and extent of injuries to natural resources and services, thus providing a technical basis for evaluating the need for, type of, and scale of restoration actions. The OPA and OSPRA rules define injury as "…an observable or measurable adverse change in a natural resource or impairment of a natural resource service. Injury may occur directly or indirectly to a natural resource and/or service" (15 C.F.R. §990.30 and LAC 43:XXIX.109). There are two stages to injury assessment: injury determination and injury quantification. Injury determination began with the identification and selection of potential injuries to investigate. The OPA and OSPRA regulations allowed the Trustees to consider several factors when making the injury determination, including, but not limited to: • the natural resources and services of concern; • the evidence indicating exposure, pathway and injury; • the mechanism by which injury occurred; • the type, degree, spatial and temporal extent of injury; • the adverse change or impairment that constitutes injury; • available assessment procedures and their time and cost requirements; • the potential natural recovery period; and • the kinds of restoration actions that are feasible. The Trustees considered all of the factors listed above before injury determinations (discussed below) for this incident were made.
